This page aims to provide all the information to evaluate if the method of associating the respective identifiers is suitable for your needs. These identifier relationships have been extracted from existing premium products and are presented in a standalone table for easy and open access to the information. It describes which product the information was extracted from, what information was extracted and how the source product derived the original association between the identifiers.
The relationship between the Unique Property Reference Number (UPRN) and the Topographic Identifier (TOID) of OS MasterMap Highways Network - Roads is extracted for all live, provisional and historic BLPU records in AddressBase Premium. Data from the OS MasterMap Highways Network - Roads and AddressBase Premium BLPU table are joined where the TOID equals the CROSS_REFERENCE of the AddressBase Premium Cross-Reference table and the source is equal to ‘7666MI’.
The relationship is extracted from AddressBase Premium after the release of each six weekly Epoch. Further information on the relationship extraction, including the date of extraction and product version information, are provided in the Product Version Information File.
The relationship is determined by finding the closest RoadLink TOID from OS MasterMap Highways Network – Roads, to every BLPU of AddressBase Premium that references a USRN. The relationship is performed by GeoPlace, a joint venture between Ordnance Survey and Local Government Association (LGA) who produce AddressBase.
AddressBase Premium is updated every six weeks and OS MasterMap Highways – Roads is updated every four weeks. Therefore, some of the version information in the product may have changed and mean that the relationship is out of sync. To provide an indication of the reliability of the version information provided in this product in relation to that of the version of the features used to form the correlation in the original product, a Confidence Value is given for each relationship, which is defined as follows:

This relationship is between the Unique Street Reference Number (USRN) of the Street features in OS MasterMap Highways Network and the TOID of the TopographicArea of the corresponding road surface area in OS MasterMap Topography Layer.
A USRN is a unique, persistent identifier for every street, assigned in the National Street Gazetteer (NSG) to any road, footway, path, cycle track, track or passageway that forms a highway. Where possible, the geometry of streets provided in the National Street Gazetteer is spatially matched to the geometry of OS RoadLinks to provide the additional attribution captured in the NSG against detailed OS geometry.
This relationship is extracted from the relatedRoadArea attribute on the matched RoadLink(s) within OS MasterMap Highways Network – Roads product following its release. This means that this relationship will not include all USRNs in OS MasterMap Highways Network, as Street features that have not been matched to an OS RoadLink will be omitted.
Where Street features have been successfully matched to OS RoadLinks, the Street features in OS MasterMap Highways Network are aggregate features composed of one or more RoadLinks. The relationship is determined by a line in a polygon intersection between the centre line geometry of matched RoadLink(s) and the topographic area polygon. The relationship is performed by Ordnance Survey.
The two source products used to extract this relationship are on different refresh cycles. OS MasterMap Highways Network is updated monthly, whereas OS MasterMap Topography Layer is updated every six weeks. Therefore, some of the version information in the product may have changed, meaning that the relationship is out of sync. A Confidence Value is assigned to indicate the reliability of the version information provided in this product in relation to the version of the features used to form the correlation in the original product. The Confidence Value is given for each relationship, which is defined in this relationship as:
The Open Linked Identifier data product is supplied in Comma-Separated Value (CSV) format, which comes with Product Version Information files formatted as JavaScript Object Notation (JSON).
Upon downloading the data you will receive zip files of the 11 Linked Identifier relationships. The generalised naming convention for each Relationship ID is:
{Data Identifier 1}_{Feature Identifier 1}_{Data Identifier 2}_{Feature Identifier 2}_{CorrelationType Number}
For example: BLPU_UPRN_RoadLink_TOID_9
| Relationship IDs | Relationship |
|---|
Upon downloading the CSV data, you will have 11 zip packages for each relationship. Each zip package contains four files, for example BLPU_UPRN_RoadLink_TOID_9.zip extracts:

This technical specification provides detailed technical information about OS Open Linked Identifiers. It is targeted at technical users and software developers.
OS Open Linked Identifiers is a dataset containing the authoritative relationships between Unique Property Reference Numbers (UPRNs), Unique Street Reference Numbers (USRNs) and Topographic Identifiers (TOIDs), and metadata. Identifiers are labels that are assigned to representations in a dataset. They are at the heart of how data can be effectively published, retrieved, reused and linked.
| Feature Type | Identifier Type | Source Product | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
OS Open Linked Identifiers enables you to connect the variety of relationships between UPRN, USRNs and TOIDs. These are extracted from premium products to provide you with the most up-to-date feature metadata sourced from AddressBase, OS MasterMap Highways Network and OS MasterMap Topography Layer. The more an identifier is used in other datasets, the more valuable the primary data becomes.
For example, OS Open Identifiers enables visualisation of data linked to the Highways RoadLink and Open Roads products. By sharing the road link mapping between Highways and Open Roads it enables data that has been collected and shared against the Highways’ premium products to be visualised in the open geometry.
Identifiers are crucial to the process of sharing information and linking together datasets, allowing them to fit into many workflows in many different types of workplace to provide powerful insights and support analytics.
A UPRN is a unique numeric identifier for every addressable location in Great Britain. The identifier is critical for property related information and can be found throughout OS's AddressBase products. An addressable location may be any kind of building, residential or commercial, or it may be an object that might not have a ‘normal’ address – such as a bus shelter or an electricity substation. UPRNs provide these addressable locations with a consistent, persistent identifier never being reused.
A USRN is a unique and persistent identifier for every street, road, track, path, cycletrack or way in Great Britain. It can be found in the OS MasterMap Highways Network products and is also a key component in OS’s AddressBase suite of products.
A TOID is a unique identifier, consisting of the letters ‘osgb’ and followed by either thirteen or sixteen digits, associated with every feature in many of Ordnance Survey’s large-scale products. The TOID is based upon the Digital National Framework concept and the principles that underpin it. In order for the TOID to be effective, it is essential that the reference given to it by OS remain unaltered in any way.
This page aims to provide all the information to evaluate if the method of associating the respective identifiers is suitable for your needs. These identifier relationships have been extracted from existing premium products and are presented in a standalone table for easy and open access to the information. It describes which product the information was extracted from, what information was extracted and how the source product derived the original association between the identifiers.
This relationship is between the Topographic Identifier (TOID) of the RoadLink features and the TOID of Road features in OS MasterMap Highways Network.
A Road feature is a link set which represents a collection of RoadLink features that share the same name (e.g. Bilston Road) or classification number (e.g. A41). The relationship is extracted using the reference to the
RoadLinks which make up each Road feature in the ‘link’ attribute within OS MasterMap Highways Network – Roads product following its release.
The relationship is determined by the link reference within OS MasterMap Highways Network - Roads, demonstrating the RoadLinks of which the Road features are composed.
